Frances, the only daughter of Frank Spaulding and Annie Florez, was born December 16, 1955 in Visalia, California and passed away peacefully, with her husband by her side, on July 24, 2011 in Los Angeles, California. Frances successfully worked as a vacation rental specialist in Hilo, Hawaii for 5 years, managing a number of homes, all on her own. Frances also spent many of her adult years living in Los Angeles/San Fernando Valley where she raised her two sons as a single mother. She worked at a variety of jobs in and out of the film industry. She was so loving, so giving to any and all, so full of joy and laughter, not only in the good times but in the difficult times as well. She so loved her husband, her sons, her grandchildren, her siblings, parents, family, and her so very many friends. She loved the beach, she loved to dance, she loved her animals; but most of all, she loved life. And she, in return, was loved by so many. The world lost a good one, but heaven received an angel. Frances is survived by her devoted husband, Steven Vlottes; her 2 sons, Rudy Diaz and Frank Diaz; her 4 siblings, Pamela L. Valos, Renee U. Schneider, Margaret House and Joseph L. Gutierrez; her 3 grandchildren, and many relatives and very close friends. Frances also leaves behind, her beloved 6 dogs (Maxx, Pongo, Maxxine, Jackson, Taco and Baby Pockets), 1 cat (Kitty) and 8 chickens (no names except Lil Bit). The memorial service for Mrs. Spaulding-Vlottes will be Sunday, July 31st at 11:00 a.m. at Green Hills Memorial Chapel in Rancho Palos Verdes.
In lieu of flowers, the family would deeply appreciate if donations were made to Frances' favorite charity,
